It makes little sense to say that \s matches \cK unconditionally in the
same sentence as saying it matches \cK conditionally (>= Perl 5.18).
I suppose the intention could have been to specify the full char class
in the documentation from 5.18 onwards while still noting when that
change happened (the introducing commit, d28d802, was only on 5.17+),
but the sentence structure and convention in the rest of the document
suggests otherwise.
